No matter how hard you work, the road to success is never straightforward. If you want to make it in the creative industry, youâll need to not only get used to being rejected (a lot), but work out how to harness short-term set backs and transform those soul-crushing "didn't get the job" moments into life lessons.
still reading all of these articles. Trying to gain some optimism, remember how to actually be inspired of my work, instead of scared of the results.

nice irony embroidery. Like the contrast of the âsoft artsâ and the real words

woahh
WHAT THE HECK? ARE THESE HAND MADE OR MACHINE MADE? BOTH? WOah. I donât think I could ever... I mean, Iâve never tried making something purely embroidery. These are just amazing, though. Wow. My badges are nothing like these, but I still like their aesthetic and their vibe. Looking at stuff like this, though... Thereâs still so much I could try.
I LOVE this kind of photography!! People just bein dorks & having fun. Lovely â„
Trying out a different page order.
Starts off a lil funny, gets real deep real fast, sink for a while, and then gets a little more optimistic. Could probably do with a few more optimistic ones tacked on at the end, though XD
Had 1 bit of feedback so far, which was essentially that it could do with some more uplifting comics at the end, so Iâll have to think about that. Iâm hoping to print out an A5 paper copy so that I can get some feedback back in uni, too :o
A collection of my self-reflective comics. Featuring: a Small Dreamer, a Big Talker, an Overthinker, a Sense-Maker, and a Straight Talker.
ISSU makes a pdf into a virtual book - i can turn the pages and everything :O
This is a super basic mock-up, though.
thinking about book sizes. Demy Quarto looks good to me? Or maybe Crown Quarto. I want somewhere between A5 and A4, but wider, so one of these would be the best I think!
a good olâ pdf about kids and programming science (learning through comics!)
A troubled childhood in Iran. Living with a disability. Grieving for a dead child. Over the last forty years the comic book has become an increasingly popular way of telling personal stories of considerable complexity and depth. In Autobiographical Comics: Life Writing in Pictures, Elisabeth El Refaie offers a long overdue assessment of the key conventions, formal properties, and narrative patterns of this fascinating genre. The book considers eighty-five works of North American and European provenance, works that cover a broad range of subject matters and employ many different artistic styles. Drawing on concepts from several disciplinary fields--including semiotics, literary and narrative theory, art history, and psychology--El Refaie shows that the traditions and formal features of comics provide new possibilities for autobiographical storytelling. For example, the requirement to produce multiple drawn versions of one's self necessarily involves an intense engagement with physical aspects of identity, as well as with the cultural models that underpin body image. The comics medium also offers memoirists unique ways of representing their experience of time, their memories of past events, and their hopes and dreams for the future. Furthermore, autobiographical comics creators are able to draw on the close association in contemporary Western culture between seeing and believing in order to persuade readers of the authentic nature of their stories.
Iâm pretty sad, actually, that I didnât find this PDF while researching for my reflective journal. Damn, huh? Itâs pretty interesting, talking not only about what a comic is (using Lynda Barry as an example, with âproofâ from Scott McCloudâs Understanding Comics), but also what legitimises an autobiography. Just one big DAMN tbh, cause I spent so much time writing about interactive comics, which are fab, but what I really should have focused on was autobiographical (or self-reflective, personal, whatever) comics with the angle of asking what happens when, or how they could evolve into interactive comics.
Hindsightâs a bitch.
Jason Shigaâs ambitious projects leap from one medium to anotherâand unite them.
I really like the visuals of these more intricate comics? Theyâre absolutely mad. Their shape reminds me of a flow chart, like the yes/no method of giving instructions, or making a gag, or even to tell a story I guess?
Man, through reading this, I went down some rabbit holes. Initially, I began reading, and then followed the first video shown onto several videos on youtube. This wasnât the video shown on the article, but it linked to here:
this is pretty interesting already - Iâm not hugely interested in alternate scenarios, but itâs nice to physically open/close routes. This lead me on to this ânumber machineâ, which I REALLY like for practicality and would like to explore, really:
My housemate then came over to see what I was watching and noted that this was based on the Turing Machine, which rang a bell, but I didnât really understand what she meant, so I looked it up:
...but in all honesty, I still donât really get it, other than itâs binary coding. And, heck, anyway, Iâm not interested in the numbers! Iâm interested in the user experience! So I went back to the original video, and found a few more videos where Jason Shiga (and others) show us how some of his alternative comics work:

All in all, I just have to say that this guy is absolutely mad. But I love it! And I would like to have a go at trying these out for myself - I donât think Iâm literally chasing the idea of encouraging a conversation between the users of my FMP, now, but maybe if I can make something cool enough, itâll be worth talking about.
(Agony Aunt style questions & answers)
DAMN Iâve been reading this a lot. Itâs soothing to see these problems dissected by Prudy, and actually, Iâve found that the method of writing a letter to her, even if I donât send it, allows me to dissect my own questions, which might be good for a sarcy comic or something of the like?
We asked three illustrators three simple questions about personal branding, online identity and reputation.
/lays down/
this is so useful information and I just really want to get on with stuff and do things and. Ahhhh. I just want to make comics and images. Damn. Can I just dump my FMP and do a project on building a fuckin sick portfolio/online presence?
Planches en vrac ou Ă la dĂ©coupe: A fantastic looking exhibition with some really experimental ideas of comics produced by Etienne LĂ©croart â real physical comics, painted on wood, arranged, cut, hinged and ready to manipulate. Itâs the sort of thing you see a lot in the online world of hypercomics et al, but to see âŠ
:OOOO
It's a club you might want to join.
interview!! Good info.
Hi Lize, who are you and what do you do? Hello! Iâm Lize, obviously, and I am an illustrator! That [âŠ]
